A P reg Tdi Disco and am having problems with the key fob..Locking…

Customer Question

I Have a P reg...

I Have a P reg Tdi Disco and am having problems with the key fob. Locking , unlocking and imobiloser resetting.Have checked the battery in the fob.The buttons are worn, is it best to get them replaced?

If the fob itself is excessively worn ie: buttons and not allowing you to operate the central locking etc..then the only option after the battery has been replaced just to rule that out, is to replace the fob and have it programmed to the car...
